My wife told me to just go buy the biggest lights I could find

Hot Dang I have no idea what you did to get her to say that...... but please share.  But only share if you can keep it to a PG level.  Otherwise please share during the long drive to Boise.

Come to a meeting, they’re fun!

Decided to go with 400W SE 10K EVC bulbs. According to Sanjays analysis they pull down 204 PAR. That is compared to the 250W AB bulbs I have now at 104 par, or the phoenix bulbs at 88 par.

My wife said - "Buy the 10k for growth now, then in september get the 14k bulbs for color for reef tour". I think I caught her in a really good mood today...

Kull - the bulbs I just bought are the 250W DE/HQI Phoenix 14k's. (Really good color out of these bulbs. And quite bright, also)

Adam - I have no idea. I think I caught her in a good mood. Hence the need to act quickly...
